Abstract
Spinal cords from 8 professional and 3 amateur divers who died accidentally were examined histopathologically. Marchi-positive degeneration was found in the cords of 3 professional divers, variously affecting the posterior, lateral, and to a lesser extent the anterior columns. In 1 there was degeneration of afferent fibres within the posterior columns.Entities:
